| Reverse description | A galley depicted sailing to the left, with oars and hull rendered schematically in the provincial style. Above the vessel, a partially legible inscription appears in the field. The Greek civic legend occupies the lower portion of the reverse, identifying the mint city and the local era year. The overall style is consistent with small civic bronzes struck at Ascalon during the reign of Antoninus Pius. |
